Century Crack - Part Deux

http://wideboyz.blogspot.com/2011/11/century-crack-part-deux.html

"Century Crack is no harder placing gear on lead, than it was having it pre-placed."

"horizontal shuffling is all a piece of piss, so don't get hung up on grades, styles or anything"

Article coming here soon aparently. Hope this shuts up the whiners.

Good work lads.

I think it's good they decided to go back and tidy this up. If you've gone to the trouble of training for two years then only spending two days of the trip on the project seemed a bit disproportionate when you have the ability to further improve your style.

Looking forward to the thruch-fest DVD.

Not sure about the title of the thread, but good effort boys. An amazingly good trip to the silly cracks!

I expect he's currently working on a longer post.

The inevitable Supertopo thread is comparing them to, erm, The Beatles.

Considering Stevie Haston's indirect rant about them, thats very mild.

He's still just posted a one-line blog, in contrast to the pages of criticism about the earlier ascents. He must be working on an extended write-up.
